Tesla Bot : & egrave; this is the name of the humanoid robot presented by Elon Musk on the occasion of AI Day. After all, Tesla cars are nothing more than “ semi-sentient robots on wheels '', so why? do not remove these wheels, and create a robot with human features, preferably & quot; friendly & quot ;? It is an ambitious experiment based on the Dojo supercomputer (used by Tesla to train cars to move on the streets autonomously) which aims to create the first prototype by the end of the year. Who knows, maybe soon we will also see Tesla Bot engaged in parkour like the Boston Dynamics Atlas …
Musk reassures everyone: & quot; Sar & agrave; good, of course, and will live; in a world made for humans by eliminating dangerous, repetitive and boring tasks. ' In other words, Tesla Bot & egrave; was designed to work and to support the man, not to replace him. Sigh of relief. Its & quot; technical & quot; characteristics they are very respectable: 176 centimeters tall, weighs 56 kilograms and & egrave; capable of carrying weights up to 20 kg and moving at a speed; about 8 km/h .
It will not be as snappy as a Model Y, but with her (and with all the cars of the brand) she shares the brain, or almost: the movements of the robot are in fact managed and coordinated by a autopilot based on artificial intelligence , very similar to what defines the autonomous driving of Tesla branded cars. In the head are integrated the cameras of the autopilot to detect the surrounding environment, and it will be; also included a display for viewing information.
